Mobile Workbench
The classic bench on four locking casters, so it rolls out to meet the work and tucks away after. The lower frame sits right on the casters.

Plan$20, once
Change any size and Benchside redraws it, recounts the material and rebuilds the plan.
Built around your shop
- Your caster height, so the top still lands at your bench height
- Any length and depth
- Doubled legs or 4x4 posts to stay stiff when it's pushed around
How it goes together
- Build the top and lower frames.
- Fit the legs in the frames' corners, flush with the bottom of the lower frame.
- Lag the casters to the underside at the corners.
- Add the shelf and the two top layers.
The plan has every step written against the part letters in its cut list, with drawings of each part that has joinery.
